(Yicai Global) April 20 -- China’s commerce ministry will continue to impose anti-dumping measures on imports of cellulose pulp from the US, Canada and Brazil, since such dumping has caused substantive damage to China’s domestic cellulose pulp industry, and a causal relationship is evident between the dumping and such damage, the ministry announced today on its official website.

The rate on anti-dumping duty for US firms ranges from 16.9 percent to 33.5 percent, the rate for Canadian companies from 13 percent to 23.7 percent, and 6.8 percent to 11.5 percent for the Brazilians.
